Thanks for the kind words (I co-authored "Clone," and am in the video above). When it comes to biotech (or science in general, for that matter) there is a lot of misinformation being spread around, and our goal with this book was to play on these fears and misconceptions while bringing some truth to the masses. It's no surprise that people tend to absorb a subject better when it's presented in a way that really grabs their attention. I think that science can (and should) be both fun and enlightening at the same time; if we can educate even a few young minds out there, it will have been worth it.

If you picked up a copy, I hope you enjoyed it.

These are the books that our children should be reading in the classroom. Students are given such a bland soup of unconscionable, pretentious, semi intellectual trash from their text books. No wonder reading scores are dropping. If we gave them fun books like this one that validated their culture and dispelled this sensational fear of education and science we could create a competent generation of independent thinkers. Unfortunately governments hate independent people who won't shut up and obey so great engaging books like this will have to become the province of home schooled children and private institutes of learning.

I think ill send some mail to any private college or high school I can find right now. Should you agree with this post then find a school in your local area that might plan lessons around this engaging book.
